Pay Anamoly in 6th CPC for Armed forces personnel

Recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission and several improvements
made thereon by the Government have been largely well received by the armed
forces personnel including ex-servicemen. Some issues regarding service
conditions, pay, pension and allowances have subsequently been received. These
issues are examined by the Government on case to case basis.

In the matter
relating to retirement benefits, an Anomaly Committee was set up under the
Chairmanship of Secretary (Defence/Finance). This Committee identified some
anomalies which have since been addressed to by the Government.

Improvement
of service conditions, pay, allowances and retirement benefits of armed forces
personnel is a continuous process. Recently, a Committee headed by the Cabinet
Secretary has been set up to look into certain issues of relevance to the
defence service personnel and ex-servicemen and to provide suitable
recommendations.

This information was given by Defence Minister Shri AK
Antony in a written reply to Shri Mohd. Ali Khan in Rajya Sabha
today.
